Default RE: GLAMF!!

ROG, the GLH I built was an adventure, a new experience. I have never built another model the same way since. There was thin foam that was on the surface of a wood box to form the fuselage. Probably the first model I ever bought micro servos for [S133s].

Here is some progress of the GLAMF. The aileron cut outs would look better if they were in line with the wing tips, oh well. The fuselage has a little too much roundness for it to be a VOLKSPLANE type model, but it could be built boxy. It will be interesting to see how much trouble I have building in the proper CG, there isn't enough room to stack the battery in with the fuel tank. Worse case, the nose gets lengthened if it is a problem. I figure there will be room for a 555 RX and a 300 pack, though I will use the FEATHER RX.

After looking the photos over, it looks like some area can be removed from the vertical and horizontal stabs, and still be within TLAR limits?
